Does Ross, the largest friend, finally eat the other friends?

To be fair, the review I think assumes that casual viewers are more fanatical than they probably are. The whole “there’s a blooper reel, but we already saw one of the bloopers in a Conan O’Brian special that aired 20 years ago” and “they say some stuff, but a lot of it already came out in that Vanity Fair article in

I can actually explain this. There are a few Wikipedia-oriented communities or accounts on social media, and we all see each other’s stuff. I’ll often see a topic on Cool Freaks Wikipedia, or Depths of Wikipedia, and make a note of it to write about later. 

People used to fly in the Before Times, and had magical adventures now lost to us.

This is legitimately such an idiotic ‘controversy’ that is breaks the mind. Not because of the alleged drug use, but because of the damn evidence of it is beyond flimsy. If you are interested, below is the footage at the heart of it and it says something that majority of YouTube comments are pointing out that this is

The Nevers.

I have evidence, shocking though it may seem, that many, if not most of the artists we know and love, going all the way back to the Jazz Age, have used all kinds of illegal drugs to enhance their creative performance.

Based on this pic, I’d have thought Army of the Dead is the type of movie that really pops, and is full of fun and visual flare. The type of romp and energy that would make Edgar Wright proud. It’s not. There’s a promising opening credits sequence, but after that, it’s pretty bland, and lacks a lot of imagination.

Addams Family Values is so good! One of the very rare comedy sequels that fully lives up to the first installment. Gomez and Morticia have been my model for a good marriage all my life.

Well, these girls are from Los Angeles, and there’s already a band by that name, so by the ancient laws established by Boston, they have no choice but to move to another city which does not have a band name yet.

I pretty much live on the internet and had not heard of this phenomenon until this post, for which I am grateful because it gave me a soundtrack for a bit.

Great write up as always. Man, that New Yorker article, which literally was published 24 days before Bridesmaid’s is something.

Same recollection. I remember the issue not just as “white washing” but also “we don’t want to upset the Chinese market by casting a Tibetan actor to play a high profile and powerful Tibetan character.” By that logic, white washing was the only option left, besides growing a pair actually using a Tibetan actor to play

I still like TFA for what it is, because regardless of how much of a rehash it is (and I’ll argue it’s very deliberately the original trilogy remixed), it was still FUN.

And what’s with all these movies with dragons and aliens? They don’t exist! What does it say about our society that we demand such fictionalization in our fiction? I want a crime movie that’s all about the paperwork that the cops have to fill out after arresting a criminal. Let’s bring some boring reality into our

AND while I would not say Winstead is an action star or anything, just last year she played Huntress in Birds of Prey (the movie was uneven but she was unequivocally the best part), and Ramona Flowers in Scott Pilgrim, who I have heard “kicks all kinds of ass.”

Death Proof, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, 10 Cloverfield Lane, low-key, action-free movie, the lot of them!

but the thing that makes this like John Wick is that it stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead, an actor who doesn’t normally do action movies

With all due respect (kinda), but if Iceland 2020 is your favourite Eurovision performance ever - technically not even an Eurovision performance as the contest was canceled last year (covid) - you do not know Eurovision. It was good (by Eurovision standards), but not even close to the best.
